I have the same surgery date as well. So ready for the preop diet to be over with. The last two days are going to be the worst because it's all clear liquids!

I'm also scheduled for March 25. No pre op diet for me either - just nothing to eat after midnight. Can't get here fast enough! Good luck everyone!

Me too!! I'm trying not to think about it too much! I'm a band to sleever so I a good idea of what to expect in the first few weeks afterwards. It's a little tough but the good thing is that it will get better. The best part is that I know the sleeve will work for me. Had a tough time with the band for about 4 years. We can do this!!

Hi all - so how are you doing after surgery? Unfortunately mine was postponed due to death in my doctor's family. So, I'm going in this Friday, April 10. Anything tips or things that are different than you expected? How long dis you stay in the hospital?

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
